How about this list of changes as a starting point: - Split esound into esound (daemon and utils) and esound-libs (#223503) - Make the package install /usr/bin/esd instead of /usr/bin/esdcompat and make it conflict with esound - that should take care of most of the gnome stack. - Figure out a way to avoid the pulse-rt group requirement, or alternatively, add users to pulse-rt automatically. - Make module-hal-detect work with recent kernels (http://pulseaudio.org/ticket/51) -- Fedora-desktop-list mailing list Fedora-desktop-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-desktop-list
